Doctor Who?

[greatbriton]

Ok. So how does this Doctor Who thing work?

Every new season there's a new Doctor? Or when/how do they determine a new Doctor?

I have never watched the show but I'm curious and that has always been a question of mine.

The new Who is awesome. Yes you should watch it. Sorry, I should have recommended it to you in your rec post but I was too busy making icons.

A new regeneration of the Doctor happens when the actor wants to leave or some circumstance like that. Christopher Eccleston was the ninth doctor and he was there for a full season (series 1, which was something like 13 eps). He regenerated into the tenth doctor played by David Tennant. David was around for series' 2, 3, 4 and this year we'll see two (?) specials with him and he'll regenerate into the eleventh doctor.

Great effects, and I loved the stories, so go watch. :)

Hmmm....I think I'm going to have to go find some Doctor Who for my next show.

I've heard nothing but good things and feel bad I've never even seen an episode. lol

Enjoy. Let me know your impressions. And, of course, watch in order. 'Rose' is your first episode.
